Chapter 22 A Miserable Martian
'Hey guys, is there an earthquake on Mars?'
On the Blue Star, the ordinary people watching the live broadcast did not know that there was an undercurrent surging on their planet at this time.
Having regarded Zhuronghao's live broadcast as a must-see program, everyone seems to have selectively forgotten that alien civilization may pose a threat to them.
'It's still shaking. The earthquakes on Mars last a long time.'
‘Did the mine get trampled? I see there is a robot running outside, I don’t know if it can escape.’
"I don't know whether the robot escaped or not. All I want to say now is that it's such a miserable Martian."
Regarding this sudden earthquake on Mars, the comments in the Blue Star live broadcast were full of ridicule.
Of course, Luo Xiu, who is far away on Mars, cannot see these comments and comments.
Since Luo Xiu was wearing exoskeleton armor, he quickly stabilized his figure and looked towards the entrance of the mine.
Because Luo Xiu's demand for copper mines was not too high before, there was only one maintenance robot stationed in this mine. But even if there is only one, for Luo Xiu, who is not yet able to produce a large number of production maintenance robots, every maintenance robot
Robots are very important.
"How long will it take for No. 7 to come out?" Luo Xiu, who has been on Mars for half a month, knows that Mars does not have plate tectonics, so even if there are earthquakes, the magnitude will not be too large.
The last time a mine collapsed was mainly due to the fact that the mine itself was still being reinforced. The sudden vibration caused the tunnel to collapse before the tunnel could be reinforced, damaging the power device of a maintenance robot.
In fact, if Luo Xiu, who is wearing exoskeleton armor, is included, even if the mine collapses, he will not be harmed.
But the maintenance robot is only used for maintenance after all, and it was not considered that Luo Xiu would use it for mining when it was designed.
"Heading to the cave entrance."
Under Luo Xiu's question, the control system of each base responsible for maintaining robot signal transmission also immediately replied.
However, just when Luo Xiu was about to go to the entrance of the copper mine to see the situation, the spark earthquake suddenly stopped this time. And judging from the appearance of the mine, it seemed that there was not much damage.
"Stopped?"
After realizing that the ground under his feet was no longer shaking, Luo Xiu looked at the mine entrance again. The No. 7 maintenance robot responsible for the copper mine excavation also happened to run out of the mine.
"Hoo, ho..."
Just when Luo Xiu was glad that he had not lost another maintenance robot, a gust of wind suddenly came from behind Luo Xiu.
"Oops, it's a Martian dust storm?!"
Although Luo Xiu didn't look back, he already knew from the sound that something was approaching.
On Mars, although the atmosphere is very thin compared to that of blue stars, it is very active. With this level of activity, Mars will raise a large amount of dust and form dust storms.
Each dust storm lasts from a few weeks to several months. A large amount of dust blocks the sky and the sun, covering a very wide area.
"Your luck seems a little bad today?"
Although Martian dust storms occur very frequently, this was only the second time Luo Xiu encountered them.
The first time he encountered this Martian dust storm was when the spacecraft had just crashed, and he saw it at the end of a dust storm.
But the good thing is that the area where Luo Xiu is located seems to be on the edge of the dust storm and will not be greatly affected by this dust storm.
"Your Excellency Commander, this is just dust passing through the edge of the dust storm."
After a quick calculation, the base's control system also reported to Luo Xiu.
"That's good." After learning that this dust storm was just a simple transit, Luo Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that this dust storm will not hinder the development of his base.
However, although this dust storm was just passing through, Luo Xiu didn't want to stand there and eat sand.
So when the dust storm was about to approach, Luo Xiu quickly ran towards the direction of the mine. When he was about to run into the entrance of the cave, Luo Xiu did not forget to greet Zhu Rong, who was still parked in place.
"Zhu Rong, come here."
At Luo Xiu's greeting, the Zhurong quickly started up and moved quickly towards the entrance of the cave.
At this time, the viewers watching the live broadcast on Blue Star did not know what was happening. Since they could only see the forward perspective of the Zhurong, they could not see the dust storm blocking the sky and sun behind them.
Precisely because the dust storm could not be seen on Blue Star's live broadcast, everyone was very confused about Luo Xiu's operation.
'What is that alien doing? Didn't the earthquake just happen? Why did he run towards the mine?'
'I seemed to hear something just now. Is there any change on Mars?'
'Change? What can change...'
Just when the barrage discussion on the Blue Star live broadcast was in full swing, Zhu Ronghao, who quickly rushed to the entrance of the cave, was unable to enter the mine due to its excessive width. Staying in place, it turned its camera and pointed it at the rear.
Dust that blocks out the sky.
'Wow, what is this? A sandstorm?'
'The dust is so big, it looks like the end of the world. The area it covers is too big, right?'
‘Is it a Martian dust storm? I didn’t expect the dust storm to come just after the earthquake. This alien must be too unlucky.’
'No, don't you think Zhu Ronghao is the unluckiest one? He's so fat that he doesn't even have a place to hide, so he can only watch the dust come over.'
'Yes, it's still worse in Zhuronghao.'
In the comments and comments on various platforms, just when the dust was about to cover Zhuronghao, the scene suddenly changed, and everyone began to feel sorry for Zhuronghao.
However, while feeling sorry for the Zhurong, a small number of Blue Star people also expressed condolences for Luo Xiu's experience, "I think this alien is quite miserable. Do you think the base that was built with great difficulty will be destroyed?"
'
'Good guy, you are still worried about aliens, I wish he would die! You bastard!'
"Buzz."
Just when the Blue Star people were discussing whether it was Luo Xiu, an 'alien', or Zhu Rong, who was in a worse situation, a dust storm with a speed of more than 100 meters per second suddenly came over, and a large amount of dust rushed towards them, covering the outside of the cave.
The Zhurong account is completely covered.
"Crash."
After the dust storm enveloped the Luo Xiu area, a large amount of gravel was swept into the air and slammed down. The Blue Star people who lost their vision due to the dust could only hear the gravel falling on the fuselage of the Zhurong.
the sound of.
Hearing this voice, not only the humans on Blue Star, but also Luo Xiu, who was standing in the mine, felt a little sorry for this 'fellow countryman' who had come all this way.
However, if the Zhurong had not blocked a large amount of dust, Luo Xiu in the cave might have been buried by the dust. So although Luo Xiu thought so, if there was a next time, the Zhurong would be the one blocking the entrance of the cave.
